Synchromysticism

My Ruby Rose and the Giant Peach Synch

I picked up a Sydney Sunday paper at the Bangalow petrol station on the Sunday morning of the Bangalow Billy-cart Derby.Pictures from the 2015 Bangalow Billycart Races Last Sunday I don't buy Sydney papers usually, but because I was down in Bangalow, which is not in my home state, I decided to grab a New South Wales paper, instead of my usual Queensland Sunday paper.On the front was a photo of Ruby Rose, not someone I was real familiar with, but I did recall seeing her doing interviews on TV occasionally for MTV.

I had let the paper sit idle for a week, or two, after I had bought it, then decided to read the story on Ruby Rose.Not long after I had read the news story a net friend who lives down around Uki in New South Wales wrote this comment about a Brisbane singer that I had never heard of before, "Oh, and I almost forgot, my girl friend who is a singer had a bizarre encounter with this local singer/songwriter from Brisbane".A singer who sings under the name MKO, and he placed a link to her website - http://www.mko.net.au/#!music/c1aka

that looked a lot like Ruby Rose and I replied back with this comment-

"I don't know if this is a picture of MKO, or not, but it reminds me of Ruby Rose who I was reading about today from a Sunday paper I bought at the Bangalow Petrol station on Bangalow Billy-cart Race-day."

It turned out that it was MKO looking like a Ruby Rose clone, but since then it looks like she has found her own sense of self.

MKO

Don't get me wrong, I love MKO's music and had she not looked like Ruby Rose in the first photo that I saw of her maybe I wouldn't have stumbled across her music, but there is only one Ruby Rose, just like there is only one MKO, and the thing that I really like about Ruby Rose is that she doesn't try to be anyone but herself, and that is where her strength lies for me.

Ruby Rose has a tattoo on the back of her left hand of a dog with blue bubble in the background and on her wrist.

This little black dog on Ruby's left hand reminded me of the analogy between depression and "The Black Dog".

I have no idea why Ruby placed this little black dog on her hand, but I couldn't help thinking that it was about keeping the "black dog" at hand and playful rather than menacing the owner.It probably has nothing to do with the reason why Ruby put it there (consciously at least),but I can well imagine this as a subtler layer to the tattoo.This tattoo should probably be tattooed on every person's hand as a reminder that NOBODY is immune to the black dog's presence.I wrote a post mentioning the black dog in this post -Black Sea of Oz?

A scene from the movie "Tracks" about Robyn Davidson's trek across Oz.

In the movie Tracks, as well as in real life, a black dog was along for most of the trip through the desert.A Black Dog
is also used as a metaphor for depression in popular culture, and this
film does have a subtext of the depression the main character had
throughout her journey and life.

Robyn's mother hung herself when she was young and the dog theme is a very important part of the story.

Oddly enough, I happen to be in the middle of reading Robyn's book right now and I have to say that if you liked the film Tracksthen you must read the book, as it fills out the details to the story in a way that the film does not.

Ruby Rose’s knuckle tattoos say “Just Love”.

I find it a little ironic that Ruby has the words "Just Love" tattooed across her fists similar to the old tattoo classic LOVE/HATE

I had no idea about her relationship to Dahl's granddaughter either until I read the newspaper story about Ruby Rose.Being a fan of both the Dahl book and movie,"James and the Giant Peach",I was stunned when I read who her partner was.Small world.

Quote

"...each person who holds the truth of his synchronistic journey, while listening for the truth in another's journey, helps to build a new, more truthful worldview. And because of this honoring of evolving truth, that person exudes a special influence on the world."From"The Twelfth Insight"by James Redfield.

A blog journal to record my weird synchronicites and thoughts on life, and to save little puzzle pieces here in the hope that they may connect further on down the track.
More for my own amusement, than for anybody else.
Some things will only make sense to me personally, and some things may effect your life, too.But feel free to read, anyway.

The Web

"Imagine a multidimensional spider's web in the early morning covered with dew drops. And every dew drop contains the reflection of all the other dew drops. And, in each reflected dew drop, the reflections of all the other dew drops in that reflection. And so ad infinitum. That is the Buddhist conception of the universe in an image." - Alan Watts

Authors of the Impossible

"What makes an author of the impossible is the insight that because paranormal processes can replicate literary processes and literary processes can replicate paranormal processes, writing can become a paranormal practise." Jeff Kripal

Here's what to do if you still dont get it :

"Start a blog. Fine with me if you want to do it under an asumed name. But do it. About something you care about. Then, check back in with yourself a month later and see if you're different. And how you are different. " Seth Godin, from his book "Meatball Sundae".
